Your concrete driveway, patio, or sidewalk shows wear and tear.

Our company has a team of experienced professionals who will work diligently to fix any cracks or chips on your concrete surface.

When To Repair Concrete Surfaces?
Over time, concrete can show signs of wear and tear. For example, you may notice small holes or cracks forming if you have a concrete slab. Several things, including weathering, settling, or poor original installation, can cause these. Left unaddressed, these minor problems can quickly turn into larger ones. That is why it is crucial to look for signs that your concrete needs repairs.
Here are a few signs you may need to repair your concrete as soon as possible:
Holes or Cracks
Small cracks or holes can turn into larger ones if we do not intervene immediately. Repair them as possible to prevent them from getting worse.
Discoloration and Change in Texture
Call an expert immediately if you notice your concrete changes its color or texture. The presence of these signs could mean structural damage. Therefore, a concrete expert must inspect as soon as possible.
Large Cracks or Missing Chunks
You need to have an expert repair large cracks and missing chunks soonest. Otherwise, it could lead to a more serious problem.
Sinking or Settling
Immediate concrete repairs are necessary if your concrete is sinking or settling. Poor drainage or soil instability usually causes this. You will need to fix it soonest to prevent further damage.
If you are not sure whether it is time to repair your concrete, it is always best to consult a professional. We can inspect the concrete and give you an expert opinion on whether you need repairs.
Best Time to Repair A Concrete Surface
Spring and early summer are the best times to repair any damage to your concrete. Repairs made during these seasons will have the best chance of curing properly and last for many years. Warmer weather conditions and longer days provide the most suitable conditions for concrete curing. Also, repairs made during these seasons are less likely to be damaged by winter weather conditions. Therefore, if you need to make repairs to your concrete, it is right to do so during the spring or early summer. By adhering to these tips, you can be sure that your repairs will last many years.

Concrete Repair Products
Despite its durability, concrete is not invincible. Over time, it can crack and become stained. Pool decks and other outdoor areas are more susceptible to damage from the elements. Fortunately, several repair products are available that can help restore your surfaces to their original condition. Depending on the extent of the damage, you may need to use a patching compound or sealant.
Patching Compound
A patching compound is a material we use for repairing cracks or holes in concrete. It is available in both paste and powder form. We can apply it either by hand or with a trowel. Patching compound is typically made from Portland cement, sand, and water. Depending on the size and severity of the repair, we can use a patching compound as a temporary or permanent fix.
If we use it properly, a patching compound can effectively repair concrete. But, it is necessary to note that we should not use a patching compound on surfaces with high levels of traffic or stress. For the best results, we should apply a patching compound when the temperature is above 50 degrees Fahrenheit.
Sealant
Sealant is a material used for repairing and sealing concrete. We use it in certain circumstances where it is necessary to repair concrete or to prevent water from entering. We apply a sealant to the surface of the concrete and then left it to dry. Once it has dried, it forms a barrier that prevents water from entering the concrete. We also use sealants to seal cracks in concrete. Many things can cause cracks in concrete, including weathering, settlement and movements on the ground. Sealing these cracks helps to prevent water from entering the concrete and causing damage.
Meanwhile, in more extreme cases, we may need to replace sections of the affected surface. But, with the right repair material, you can usually make your concrete slab look new again.
Cost of Concrete Repair
The cost of repairing concrete can vary depending on the intensity of the damage and the type of repair required. Sometimes, we can repair a small crack or chip using a simple patching kit. Meanwhile, more serious damage may require the replacement of entire sections of concrete. The latter option can be very costly.
The type of repair the surface needs will also affect the cost. More complex repairs will require specialized equipment and materials. The location of the damage will also play a role in the final cost. It is essential to know that repairs in hard-to-reach areas may require scaffolding or other access equipment. But, no matter the size or scope of the repair, it is necessary to hire a qualified professional to ensure a lasting fix.
